<p>I submitted my American University application last night, but in reviewing my supplement, I realized that I wrote “a pierce of legislation” rather than “a piece of legislation”
HELPP
I’m freaking out…
should I send an email?
What do I do
please help</p>
<p>What you should do is breathe, relax and forget about it.<br>
It is obvious what you meant to write, and obvious that it is a typo. Admissions officers understand typos and one typo will not harm your application.
Sending an email will just call attention to the mistake.</p>
<p>Pierce is a obvious typo. Be thankful it’s not “peace of legislation”.</p>
<p>Good point! Than you </p>
<p>hahaha than </p>
<p>Although I do think our polarized Congress probably could use some “peace of legislation”… 
</p>
<p>I found a good half dozen typos in my application. I’m sure it’s fine, don’t stress out.</p>
<p>That’s a TINY typo.
Admissions Officers are probably going too fast to catch such an error anyway - like everyone else, their brain’s self-correct.</p>
